Bikes: 34 frames + 80 wheels

More like 10 times the cost, since I only paid $51 for the frame haha. The intended purpose is 100% road; it will never put a wheel down at the track. Mostly, I take this bike out for 10-30 mile rides on country roads for a workout. Actually, I have two other track bikes that are brakeless and I use 99% of the time on the track, and I can share these wheels with them. But you're right, spending that much on wheels just for that frame makes little sense.
